Greenwald Davidson Radbil

What Greenwald Davidson Radbil does

Greenwald Davidson Radbil PLLC is a litigation boutique law firm that prosecutes consumer protection class actions on behalf of plaintiff classes, with a near-exclusive focus on the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA). The firm represents consumers who have received unauthorized robocalls, prerecorded voice calls, text messages, or improper debt collection communications, and has secured more than $143 million in cumulative settlements across cases against defendants including Wells Fargo, Citibank, Assurance IQ, Navient, Cox Communications, and GC Services. The firm operates from two offices — a Boca Raton, Florida headquarters at 5550 Glades Road, Suite 500 and an Austin, Texas office opened in February 2015 and led by partner Aaron D. Radbil — with a four-partner structure (Michael L. Greenwald, James L. Davidson, Aaron D. Radbil, and Jesse S. Johnson) and between 1 and 10 total employees.

The firm generates revenue exclusively through contingency fees tied to class action settlements and judgments, a model in which attorney compensation is a percentage (typically 25–33% in class action practice) of the common fund created for the plaintiff class. There is no disclosed pricing schedule, no hourly billing, and no subscription or retainer arrangements. Notable appellate victories include pro-consumer rulings from the Third, Sixth, and Ninth Circuit Courts of Appeals — the Ninth Circuit ruling (Hernandez v. Williams, Zinman & Parham) drew an amicus brief in support from the FTC and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The firm was founded circa 2013 as Greenwald Davidson PLLC, was renamed in 2014 when Aaron D. Radbil became a named partner, and added securities fraud class action capability with the 2017 partnership of Jesse S. Johnson, previously a litigator at Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP.

The firm's go-to-market is sales-led but unconventional: client acquisition occurs through filing class action lawsuits, accepting plaintiff referrals from co-counsel and legal aid organizations, and developing cases from inbound inquiries generated by the firm's website, news releases, and social media presence. The firm has no technology platform, no software product, no API, and no disclosed AI/ML capabilities — its product is exclusively attorney labor and legal judgment. Marketing channels are limited to the firm website (gdrlawfirm.com), Twitter/X and Facebook accounts, press releases announcing settlements, and occasional educational seminars delivered to legal aid organizations (notably the Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach County). The firm is privately held as a Florida professional limited liability company with no outside institutional investment, no parent company, and no public funding.
